Handy Distribution will become the sole UK distribution partner for 2015 on Flymo products and will handle all customers outside of Husqvarna Groups own existing customer base. Handy Distribution is already the sole UK distribution partner for 2 of Husqvarna’s other global consumer brands Gardena & McCulloch so the addition of Flymo makes perfect sense and will put all the brands under one roof.
The timing of this appointment comes just days after Handy Distribution announced it is to open a new £3m distribution centre in Swindon to accommodate its fast growing business and reinforce its position as the UK’s number 1 garden machinery wholesaler.
Handy managing director Simon Belcher comments “We are delighted to be appointed as sole distribution partner for Flymo products and it fits perfectly with what we already do with Husqvarna’s other consumer brands, distribution has changed a lot in the last 20 years in our industry and this appointment reflects the commitment we have put in and the high level of customer service we able to offer”
“Flymo are one of the biggest brands in the UK and a leading brand in lawnmowers and line trimmers and we are proud of a portfolio of the biggest brands and excellent customer service”
Handy have a team of area managers covering the whole of the UK and ship products around the country with next day delivery, Flymo have a complete range of electric & cordless mowers, grass trimmers, hedge trimmers as well as the professional XL500 petrol hover mower which is based on the original Flymo, the type of machine that made the brand famous.
Handy Distribution will be exhibiting at Saltex with the XL500 and McCulloch products and 2 weeks later at GLEE with the entire range of Flymo, McCulloch and Gardena.
